Life Force Exhibition

Opening Tuesday 24 November when the gallery opens at 10.30am. You're invited to join us at any time during the opening day to preview a wide range of art from talented Northland artists.

The idea to call the exhibition Life Force (which links from Whisperings of the Earth), came from George Bernard Shaw's concept of Life Force. Put simply, his central idea of Life Force is that it experiments in order to create better forms of life - that is life gradually evolves, including in the next.
“You see things; and you say why? But I dream things never were; and I say, ‘why not?’’ George Bernard Shaw
